Omar Rodríguez-López

[GrossMagic]

The musical genius that brought you De Facto, At the Drive In & The Mars Volta.

Omar Rodríguez-López

[rebel86]

YES! And I have ALL of his albums, and it's hard to collect them, trust me.

[darksideofkaos.]

This should be a pretty cool set to check out.

[_thepatient]

didnt think he'd go to coachie. but after he got listed onto sxsw, there was hope. i wonder what new material he'll have on showcase. same group lineup; omar, juan, deantoni, lars, marcel?

[_thepatient]

i'd figure he would be over un escorpion by then? and having other new tunes.

[GaragePoet]

as unlikely as it is, i'd love to see Frusciante join him for this performance, esp. given that they released 2 albums online last year & John is ostensibly not doing anything right now...

[DANCE MAGIC]

YES! And I have ALL of his albums, and it's hard to collect them, trust me.

No it isn't. Go to Waterloo in Austin and they have boxes full of everything this guy has ever done.

Also, have you ever heard of amazon.com? It's pretty cool.

[Mammoth85]

So excited to finally see his solo work. This is icing on the cake for me.

[weezy f baby]

Maybe Cedric will pop his head in and they'll do a TMV tune.

[Aumgn]

i've got a feeling his set is either gonna be a wankfest or psychedelicambient pedal fun

[_thepatient]

not sure if youre familiar with the coma (as theres another thread about this over there) but there was a mention on how it may, or may not, be "el grupo nuevo" with him. just have to wait and see. seeing the "el grupo.." lineup make its first public appearance would be nice, it guarantees cedric and zach hill. either way, even if omar decided to do an acoustic solo set, im there.

[DANCE MAGIC]

i don't care about any of this unless its an ATDI reunion, and then it will be the #1 most important thing of the weekend.

[GrossMagic]

even if omar decided to do an acoustic solo set, im there.

NO.

[GnarVee]

can't wait......my high school daily dose was TMV

[drummer333]

so.. where should I start with his solo stuff?

[rjadams90]

so.. where should I start with his solo stuff?

All of it. I'm not trying to be sarcastic either

Can't wait for his setttttt. like omg omg omg.

[involvelemons]

This is gonna get way rad. I have to say, that this year has the weirdest coefficient of lame headliners vs quality, well curated experimental music.

[_thepatient]

so.. where should I start with his solo stuff?

omar rodriguez lopez - bandcamp.com

definitely look into all of them, since they all vary quite a bit. some staples to check out; "xenophanes," "cryptomnesia," "old money," and "calibration."

[fredbull]

also the one with the asian writing i believe are some of the recordings from the videos in the OP

Edit: i believe its どういたしまして

[Yatha]

I saw them at the Troubadour last year and it was an incredible show, the band really enjoyed themselves and were really on that night. I loved the addition of vocals of Ximena, very good addition to his band. I released a podcast with a ton of Omar stuff that was approved by Sargent House, definitely check it out if you don't know where to start and are wondering if you want to check out the music of Omar Rodriguez lopez live at Coachella. If you have heard the mans music and you enjoy, check it out anyways.

CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS SHOW!

Erik

[b3illa]

Omar is amazing. Always has .... always will. Cant wait to see this!!!

[Aales]

Do you think xiemena (I'm sure I spelled her name wrong,sorry) will be there?! I hope not I'm praying for fuji rocks part 2

[Mugwog]

echo show = zzz

[ryanliamg]

as unlikely as it is, i'd love to see Frusciante join him for this performance, esp. given that they released 2 albums online last year & John is ostensibly not doing anything right now...

same!

[RapidFireTollBooth]

Omar is gonna put on an AMAZING show! I saw him perform his solo stuff a few months ago at the Troubadour in Hollywood and I was blown away. I've been an avid TMV follower forever, hence the name <----(RapidFireTollBooth). With Cedric having Vocals on most of Omar's solo work you can count on seeing him on the polo fields!

Se Dice Bisonte, No Bufalo! John Frusciante and Flea are on a few tracks

[yeahfontaine]

Omar Sampler of all kinds of his "solo" work (with all of his incarnations besides TMV) being released on Record Store Day. $19 for a 37-track double CD. Awesome!!! I really want the deluxe vinyl box set, but need to save for Coachella.

[Mr. E]

looking foward to see Omar.

[JAvina1283]

Definitely looking forward to Omar's set. Seen TMV live, and they were amazing...I except Omar to put on a hell of a set. For the ones that are not familiar with his work, I would suggest: A Manual Dexterity, Calibration, Cryptomnesia, and Xenophanes.
